I have been in this situation (but was not pregnant). Originally, I am from the United States. I was living in Norway with my ex-husband who is Norwegian. I spoke the language, but never felt accepted there. I became very depressed. I wanted to return to the U.S. My ex did not want to live in the U.S. So, we did a happy medium. We moved to the U.K. and in the long run, it worked out well. I was not keen on the idea of moving to the U.K., but was willing to give it a try.

My ex and I broke up, but he is still here and will not return to Norway. I bought my own place here and never considered moving back to the U.S. because this country is now my home. Your husband may find it easier to adjust to living here than he originally thought. I never thought I would adjust, but to be honest, I could not return to live in the U.S. because I am so used to the way life is here.

Good luck!

Thanks girls, I really appreciate your comments,

Carmen, it does sound as if we're in very similar situations. When my and DH met I was living in Lausanne, on the French speaking side, and I LOVED it. I said I never wanted to go back to the UK... I guess you should never say never! I also never wanted to live in Basel, and he knew that too, I guess he was hoping I'd come around. Even though we live in France now and I just commute to Basel, they don't even speak French here but Alsacien, yuck yuck.
To be honest, seeing as he works away 6 days and is back for 5, where we live does affect me much more than him. The reason he doesn't like the UK is because he says he's always looking over his shoulder there, obviously it's a big change to Switzerland. He's also worried because I've spent so much time in hospital and he doesn't trust UK Drs or more to the point hospitals (super bugs and all that). However, his parents have now left - his mother is Mexican and his father is half Italian and half Swiss, however DH grew up in the Italian speaking part of Switzerland - his parents met in Mexico and last Autumn they moved back there, his little bro has already been studying there for 4 years and has no intention of returning, so we don't even have his family here.
DH can relocate to almost anywhere in Europe, so his job is not a problem. Moving to the UK will be a short-term solution. We have been discussing it more and more, he does seem to think it will be a good thing for us - I need to get my driving test, I tried doing it here - my French is good, but obviously not good enough because I found the theory so hard in French! Funnily enough our plan had been to move to Barcelona before I had the "I have to go back to the UK" crisis. So now we plan to use our time in the UK as a stepping stone, we know it's not forever (he would get taxed 40%, crazy), and we can plan our next move. I acutally got offered a job in the UK that pays even more than here... and then I realised that due to taxes I would also get 40%, bummer bummer, so it ends up not being worth it.
Anyway, Oxford here we come!! My sister lives there, as does my cousin, and it's somewhere DH can find himself feeling comfortable. We also love Edinburgh but unfortunately weather rules that one out. My family are all in the West Country, where DH does love, but he can't be based there.

Hi hun, It sounds like everyone has given you good advice and you already have a plan of action.
I agree that you can't continue being unhappy and if your OH works away more than being home it should be your choice - at least for now! The last thing you need is stress when TTC or when you get your

I moved with my OH when he got a promotion and I miss my friends and job. (i get really lonely - so it's good to have friends on here!) But he compromised and let me leave one job because i was so unhappy there and he supported me until i found another position. The one i have now is not very well paid and he understands this and uses his wages for our large bills.

You've got to try new things until you are both happy!
Good luck.
